I have a raised bed in the back yard for vegetables. Last year it was mostly lettuces, and this year it’s all tomatoes and corn. While I was gone this summer tons of arugula (the most resilient of lettuces and lettuce-like plants?) sprouted up in the bed amongst the tomatoes and corn. By the time I got home it had already flowered and was on the brink of going to seed. I pulled all the arugula today, cut the leaves for tonight’s salad, and used the flowers to decorate the bedside table.
